Traffic volume

The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Nov 23, 2005

The north leg carries the load — 725 southbound vehicles, or 36% of everything entering — while the west leg brought 296. Morning rush is the busier period: 388 vehicles in the peak hour from 8:00 a.m., compared with 344 from 4:30 p.m. Heavy vehicles made up 0.5% of traffic (typical: 3.2%). The citywide median for a 14-hour count is 16,183 vehicles. The count is 21 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2005, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.

How fast traffic moves here

Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming

The City's counter on Brooke Ave between Clyde Ave and Falkirk St (179 m away) recorded an average of 38 km/h in its 24-hour count in December 2009; 85% of drivers were at or under 49 km/h. That segment carries about 1,000 vehicles a day. Clyde Ave between Bannockburn Ave and Haddington Ave measured slower: 37 km/h on average and an 85th percentile of 48 km/h (Nov 2021). The reading is 17 years old; the City counts on request rather than on a schedule. 3 speed humps slow traffic on Brooke Avenue between Avenue Rd and Clyde Ave.

Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.

Killed or seriously injured

Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings

The KSI record for this intersection is empty back to 2006.

KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.

Thefts reported at this corner

Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
